  Very disappointing. One of the rooms was closed and that I think was the room that had a more traditional art on display. Only 2 rooms were open and the basement. I wish that when 25% of the museum is closed that they should inform you before you pay the admission fee. All displayed, are what I would loosely describe as modern "art". We were only in there for around 15 mins, as this form of "art" is of no interest to me what so ever. On a positive note, it is bright and airy. If you like modern art and understand how these sort of paintings, sculptures and videos get into a National Art Gallery then this is just up your street.

  A beautiful collection of art by Icelanders with some other special displays tossed in for intellectual challenging. I am wont to develop a taste for installations so was unmoved by the down stairs show but still, it was interesting. They also have one of Picasso's most unusual sculptural works in the permanent collection. Well trained staff, unhurried, and pleasant. A very nice place to relax and begin to understand the culture from an artist's perspective.

  Very small museum (as probably most of Reykiavik's museums), with some interesting pieces to see if you have something between 20 min up to an hour. Extra plus for super nice lady at the entrance :)

  Not one of our favourite museums in Reykjavik, and probably not what one normally thinks of for a national gallery. A few modern exhibits, some of which were interesting but not extensive, and a couple rooms meant to go over most of the Icelandic art movements. While the art was decent (although only a couple painters would really be described as masterful), the context was lacking. Often there was little information about an artist's process, their influences, or what they were attempting to do in their work. When there was, it was in overwhelmingly wordy blocks of text, with too many dates and names to give the visitor a useful narrative.
